The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S reported surprising sales slumps in the last few months. What will this mean for the rest of this console generation?
Exactly. It’s not like they were gaining much, most games could do 1080p/60fps on the old generation anyway. 4K wasn’t enough of a selling point and consoles are mainly used on TVs so there’s no point in higher framerate support either. Games looked good enough for couch gaming on the old generation, so as you said, there was no point upgrading.
Current gen released in 2020
Plus it was hard to get a ps5 for a few years
It was the same for the Series X/S. Scalpers probably killed the enthusiasm in these consoles for a lot of people.
